Directions
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Once it’s bubbling, toss in the bean sprouts and cover the pot. Let them cook just until they’re tender, which should take about 30 seconds. Drain the sprouts and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking. Transfer them to a bowl, then add chopped green onions, minced garlic, a sprinkle of chili powder, soy sauce, sesame oil, and a pinch of salt. Give everything a good mix so the flavors come together nicely.
Best Ways To Serve
Serve this salad chilled or at room temperature alongside grilled meats or rice dishes. It also works well as a refreshing appetizer or part of a Korean-style meal spread.
Keeping Leftovers Fresh
Store the salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best eaten within 1-2 days to maintain its crunch and fresh flavor. Avoid adding dressing until just before serving if you plan to keep it longer.
